Happy Ratty New Year!

First of all let us wish all readers of this blog a very Happy New Year and many happy moments to come. It's the year of the RAT beginning 7 Feb. Chinese New Year lasts 15 days but these days in Singapore we at most celebrate for 3-4 days, visiting relatives and friends.

Reunion Dinner at our place. A simple affair with 2nd Uncle's family, 3rd Uncle and cousin Peter and family. Cousin Raelyn was also here as her Ah Ma was not in town. All the little cousins were preset at the Reunion Dinner. It was the first complete Reunion Dinner since Keziah was born as she got a chance to mingle with her cousins.

It's New Year's day! Keziah got up bright and cheery. It's the first year that she's aware of the Ang Bao she's getting. Daddy and Mummy got DiDi and her a Sesame Street Ang Bao which she enjoyed tremendously, shouting "Elmo" and "Ernie" two of her favourite characters.

It's off to visitation in the later morning. The usual first stop will be at Su Poh Tai's place. Keziah donned on her first cheongsum to welcome the new year. Isn't she sweet?



Yiiiii.... Keziah is good at saying the "Yi" word... Wonder what she saw?


High Tech Greeting... Video Conferencing using Skypee with Da Pak Gong in Melbourne, Australia.

Little Raelyn joining in the fun with her own share of traditional chinese costume.

Keziah in a rare photoshot of her playing with her cousin.

Keziah is usually shy towards people. She was shy when her cousin Aloysius offered her his Thomas to play. She just remained in her position while Aloysius showed her his battery operated Thomas the engine. But when Aloysius's jie jie brought out her Barbie Set, she charged forward and got her hands "dirty" and played with her like they were long lost friends. :)

At the end of a long day, our little girl lost her dainty composure.


Who says you cannot drink milk comfortably in your CheongSum? Let me show you how...
